Eating Raw Oatmeal

[adalekstazchuck]

Do any of you guys/girls ever eaten dry, raw oatmeal? like the Quakers kind of oatmeal? And is it healthy eating just raw oatmeal?

I like to eat dry oatmeal, and then drink .25L/.5L water.

I kinda like eating it raw too, but I usually cook it. I don't think the nutrition facts would change at all. They shouldn't, at least. then again, i am no professional

I'd assume that they might not digest as well raw vs cooked.

[Holyspokes]

I love raw oats.. I always eat them raw. The last time I cooked them, I hated them and it upset my stomach. The nutrition of the oats would not change at all.

[Lifterforlife10]

I don't eat them that often, but I guess they might digest different. Iunno
I prefer cooked overall though.

[Anticrombie315]

I blend a half cup of raw oats into my shake twice a day. Tastes fine.

[Beerguy]

Cant remember the last time I cooked them.

[Olympique]

Yes. Dry old-fashioned quaker oats with milk here, since I was a teenager.

[adalekstazchuck]

yeah, thanks for the info guys

and i do think that cooked oats have more calories than raw oats. Since you increase the temperature, you increase the amount of Joules to increase the temperature of the oats, so since your eating raw oats at around 68* F, and cooked oats at around 150 * F, there are less Joules in raw then cooked. Everyone gets it, right? xD

That sounds absurd, lol.

EDIT: Jk?

[Yaxley]

I love them raw with cold milk!!! Specially if I eat them after the workout on summer.

[Gilligan7408]

I eat mine raw, something about them raw that i like, i dunno...

That's not correct in the slightest.

Please review thermodynamics.

x2...drinking a cup of powdered up oats is easy as hell



by raw do u mean just eating them like a cold cereal? just pour milk on, add some fruit maybe?

[elyk]

i eat steel cut oats raw and some of it doesnt get digested i noticed. not a problem for me though.

if it works with water, why can't it work with oats? It takes a certain amount of joules in an object to increase the temperature of the object. in this case, oats.

by raw i mean straight out of the bag, no cokking or putting in water, just grab a handfull, shove it in your mouth and chew.

In that case...ew! xD

[Bucka689]

i love eating raw oats, i never cook them

That's not how it works pal.

[rocky21]

I mix them in with some fruit yogurt in the morning. it's good stuff, tastes great

[adalekstazchuck]

That's not how it works pal.

Are you sure? My Chemistry teachers told me that this applies to everything your eating. When food is colder, it has less caloric value than food that is warm or hot.

dude wtf. how are you able to chew steel cut oats? they are like rock hard.

no! cold water will have a higher caloric deficit from thje body because it must heat up the water to your normal temperature, therefore using energy (calories) to do this!

[WheyAddict]

I eat raw oats with almond milk all the time.

[RobocopIsBack]

I love cooked oats with splenda, cinnimoin, and peanut butter.

[Olympique]

holy bumps

[W11_YHO]

I love mine semi raw with just enough water to mash it up without it turning it into liquid form, just nice and dry to chew =). Can taste the PB better too.

[RoyalGunz]

I eat them raw sometimes.

This this, it tastes amazing and like a chocolate cereal:
1 cup oats (raw of course!) + 1.5 cup milk + 1 scoop chocolate protein = Amazing.!! (do not microwave though!).

I love it!

[jr2648]

almond butter and other nuts with cranberries... delicious
